this is a win for atlanta, guaranteed MLB lost their deposits
as a venue owner, I personally love it when someone cancels, I keep their money and can rent it out to someone else potentially :)
AMEN! Ask Delta......Georgia just took their tax breaks away didn’t they? We had developers come in here and built a big shopping center with a Sam’s Wholesale Club and after a few months they closed it.....po’d a bunch of people so they thought they’d just make a distribution center out of it.....guess what? The Improvement District told them to read the contract. They are forbidden to open a distribution center. I hope the mental giant and everyone that went along with this got canned! A Sam’s in this area would have been a real money maker as evidenced by the shopping center.....idiots!!

I couldn’t believe where they placed the stadium. The only place worse from a traffic standpoint would have been next to the I285 and I85 intersection.
I couldn’t name you more than 10 or so players in MLB. Ditto, NFL and NBA. My kids are not interested either.
So let me get this straight - the Braves don’t even play in Atlanta anymore, but 13 miles north of Downtown Atlanta in Cumberland, Georgia. That means people who go to the game, will get ripped at the game and then drive their rental cars to ‘the city’ where the hotels are. Seems to me that the Government of Georgia just prevented a whole lot of drunk-driving accidents by helping to rid themselves of the game.
****** yes sir as a kid growing up on the south side it was always fun to go to a game last minute or anytime. Now in Snobb County you cant even drive to the game you have to ride Marta. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA couldnt happen to a better bunch of people, players included.....game starts at 4:00 cant wait for the crying LMBO
I just gave away Rockies vs Reds tickets. I was raised a Red’s fan living in Dayton and now live in Denver with the Rockies. Won’t go now.
Nope!......the white liberal plantation owners are slowly losing their slaves and they know it....
They think they can maintain the plantation image they grew accustom to with virtual and nonexistent slaves voting for them 99.9% of the time......Fair elections would kill that “image” ....
CHINESE COMMIES DON’T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN THAT’S WHY THOSE BUSINESSES AND SPORT INDUSTRIES WITH CHINA CONNECTIONS ARE AFRAID THIS COULD HAPPEN WITH THE GEORGIA ELECTION REFORM
REVIEW THOSE GEORGIA SENATE ELECTION RESULTS
There were a series of fraudulent voting charges here. Were they enforced and corrected before this election took place ? If they weren’t is not a review called for ? They were created with the introduction of Covid 19 which Biden campaign thanks the CCP for doing; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3940857/posts
If the Georgia Secretary of State is in charge of voting he has the responsibility of enforcing the state’s regulations as to who votes. And eliminate those from voter lists who don’t qualify.
Assign prosecutors to personally canvass and investigate. Check if military actually voted by asking them. Identify all voters by checking on legal age their residency and citizenship. If found they do not qualify charge Illegals including state visitors known as snowbirds also include any technical computer fraudulent Italian programming testimony when presenting to the court and get these election results tossed.
LINKED HERE ARE REASONS WHY THIS IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE DOING 90% of the military votes went for Biden ?

When an league moves a meaningless game to try and show it's indignation over a law that not one of it's members have read, nor understand, they are really just showing it's 'wokeness'.
It is just a teenage gesture of wanting to belong to the cool group.
Delta and coke and amazon jumping in because they are afraid to be out.
Not a single business would promote the idea that they should be barred from knowing the ID of their patrons, from bars to car rentals, hotel, will call windows at mlb games, airline passengers, to check cashing to every event of any kind, ID is required.
Axing a voter for an ID, racisssssssss, bigot, transophobe, homophobe and a coupla more.
Can anything be more hypocritical?
Yes, we could not believe it either. Traffic was already horrendous . When the news got out it was already a done deal. The Cobb county commissioner was soundly defeated in the next election.
No, they still have their tax breaks. Georgia House voted to remove their tax break on jet fuel, but the Georgai Senate didn’t bother to take it up before adjourning.

Why am I not shocked at this?.....just damn!!!
Moving the game may have cost “Atlanta” tens of millions in revenue, but the only revenue the State of Georgia loses will be that from out-of-state visitors; how many people actually travel from other states to attend the game.
Residents of Georgia who no longer will be attending the game will just spend elsewhere, mostly in their communities, the money they would have spent at the game.
So suppose the All Star game were kept in Atlanta, or its environs, as planned? Then what?
Riots, security risks, “burn the place down” from leftist agitators - you name it. I’m not surprised the mayor supported MLB’s decision to move the game. In addition to the opportunity for virtue signalling, she is relieved of a big headache plus she can ingratiate herself with the Democrat pooh-bahs...Maybe Biden will give her a nice job.
Baseball/football hell any ball really just go to a highschool game. College is to “woke” now too
I personally love a night at the dirt track.
Alinsky Activists punished North Carolina in 2014-2015 when they boycotted the men/women seperate bathroom bill!
Oh well.
This is what happens when elections are stolen.
At 70 years old I’ve been a life-long Reds fan, but you could offer me the best seat in the house and I wouldn’t go.
_______________________________
At 60 I too am a life long Reds fan. I keep my SiriusXM account based largely on listening to Reds games as I live in Washington now. I’m torn. The MLB as ruined itself with this move.
When I hear about woke companies declaring that they will punish the people of a state for having conservative views my heart breaks a little, because it's fascism and the USA as we knew it, the greatest beacon of progress and freedom in human history, is falling.
Good one!
